INTESOL offers a fully accredited 150+ hour distance learning TESOL Certificate with a high quality academic content and that is well respected by employers.    Many will not consider candidates with non-accredited qualifications from courses less than 150 hours in length.

Most people are familiar with Trinity College and UCLES/RSA/Cambridge, which are both validating bodies for 150 hour residential TEFL courses.

INTESOL is an accredited member of The College of Teachers - the examining body responsible for validating TESOL distance learning courses.

In a recent statement, regarding recognition of TEFL/TESOL qualifications, the British Council in London wrote: "Currently we consider reputable ELT validating bodies to include UCLES, Trinity College, any UK University and the College of Teachers."

INTESOL are proud to:

  • Provide courses which are submitted for external accreditation
  • Use external moderators to assure: academic quality of materials; fair assessment and marking procedures; maintenance of the highest professional standards in both face to face and distance training
  • Tell you as honest members of the profession that TESOL and TEFL mean the same thing and are used interchangeably
  • Offer supervised teaching practice to our trainees
  • Provide access to positions overseas through our placement scheme
  • Guarantee that we will not misinform you even if that leads you to apply for a course elsewhere.
